... Sunspots are manifestations of magnetically disturbed conditions at the Sun 's visible surface. ... Sunspot appear often in groups, and the sunspot number R is defined as R = k ( f + 10 g ), where f is the total number of spots visible to the observer, g is the number of disturbed regions (single spots or groups of spots), and k is a constant for the observatory related to the sensitivity of the observing equipment. Sunspots display a clear 11-year cycle in their number and latitude. ...
